Awesome kayak trip - It was an awesome experience, the best way to see the landscape in the caves. The guide was excellent. Discussing the fish and biology and local law of the area.

Great experience - Great experience. Really friendly, informative tour guides. Wonderful caves with the opportunity for a quick swim from one of the beaches and the added bonus of photos taken throughout so you don’t have to take your camera. Would definitely recommend.

Do it. Don't choose the over-crowded boat version to behold the beauty; The kayak version makes it more personal. - If you've kayaked before, you'll love it; Beyond the majesty of your surroundings - in the water, on the shore, in the sky - while the water's barely-choppy, the tour does have it's moments that you'll appreciate. If you're a newbie or lightly-seasoned, you'll find as my wife did that it's remarkably intuitive, particularly if you're paired in a two-seater with a more experienced kayaker; The only challenge you may experience might be learning that your sense of rhthym (in terms of coordinating strokes between) needs work, but honestly, it's really like dancing, again, intuitive. The guides were pleasant and confident and easily and naturally put any nerves to rest, with humor, banter, guidance and a running narrative of landmarks, etc. My wife and I couldn't recommend the tour more; While Tammi (this is Bill writing this, by) was a tad nervous beforehand, she's done nothing but rave about the experience since. P.S. It's remarkably affordable.

Stunning coastline experienced in a fun way - Great 2 hours exploring the coastline with 3 guides (one on a small speed boat and 2 on stand up Paddle boards). Most people didn’t get to go onto the private beach due to low tide and the first few who tried got capsized and it was decided that it was too tricky to continue). This showed that they made the best decision for overall safety. The guide on the speedboat took loads of photos of the entire group, even making sure he got individual kayak focussed ones and shared them via wee transfer later the same day for free. Some of the group were clearly inexperienced and others experienced. I think 2 hours is the right length of time, as I suspect some people were tired at the end, but it was also long enough for those more able to also enjoy it. Instead of resting on the private beach, we just chilled in the open water where some people chose to get out of of kayaks and swim, before heading back. The coastline was absolutely stunning!

An amazing activity - an absolute must! - My husband and I have just done this kayaking trip and we loved it! We were given life jackets and clear instructions for safety purposes before being allowed on the kayak. Three guides took us out to sea and were with us the whole 2 hours. They stop along the the coast line and point out caves and hidden beaches. They also take photos of you, so you can leave your camera/phones behind. They have already sent them through to us. I can highly recommend this trip. We will definitely be doing it again.

Beautiful trip - The kayak tour is well catered for and conducted by professionals. But unfortunately the sea was a bit too wild so we were not allowed into caves. We would have liked to have received a message in advance to be able to cancel the tour, because we had booked this one to enter the caves. With the boat you sail past it, so we did that now, but from the kayak. Without!! But the beach that went with it was breathtakingly beautiful.

Fun on the waves - Tour was a fun experience for my wife and I. Location of start was a little hard to get to so took a cab. Guides were professional and competent. Even though we had not kayaked before they made it easy.Overall a great fun experience.
